    Signs of bullying in young tortoises

    First time brumating

    This is the first time my desert torts have brumated. The weather has been cold one day and warm the next. Should I check in them to see if they are awake? They’ve been secured since the end of November. They are 3 years old. Any help and suggestions would be appreciated.
